Chris POV

Me and Jim have been curled up together for the past couple hours watching tv. I don't want it to end but we go back to work in 2 days. Don't get me wrong I miss the job I miss the team. But I don't want what we have to end. I guess I'm just nervous about how the team is gonna react and what is gonna happen when hicks finds out. I snuggle closer into Jim's side when his phone starts to ring. It Luca. I stand up and head into the kitchen as he answers the phone

L: hey street how r u man?
S: I'm good how r u?
L: oh you know same ol same ol. Hey where is Chris?
S: she's in the kitchen
I can hear street walk over to me. I turn around and he hands me the phone.

C: hey Luca

L: hi Chris how are you?

C: im doing good ready to get back to work I miss the team

L: yeah we miss you guys too

C: so any exciting things happen while we were out

L: oh you know drug bust, kicking in doors the usual

I nod my head and street walks up behind me. I can feel how close he is to me.

S: yeah ok old man Id like to see you kick in a door

L: oh yeah how bout I kick you ass when you get back to work

S: your on

street and Luca banter back and forth for a while and all I can think about is how close he is to me. I think Luca and Tan suspect something from the other morning but I dont want anyone to know. not just yet, I want to stay in our own little bubble for a little whole longer. im excited to get back to work but also sad because that means we have to act like nothing is going on and sneak behind our teams backs. I hand street his phone back and move over to the counter to start making dinner. chicken parm, mashed potatoes, steamed broccoli, and salad. I start to prepare dinner as I feel a pair of arms wrap around me from behind. Jim kisses my neck and I lean my body back into him. "mmmh want any help" he ask. I smile and nod my head no " no I got it but you can open up a bottle of wine and fix me a glass." I say. he kisses my neck again before going to do what I asked him to. I get the chicken searing in the pan and start in the sauces as the potatoes are cooking. "wanna cut up the lettuce and veggies for the salad?" I ask "of course" he says with a smile and hands me my glass of wine and gets to work. with both of us working on dinner it takes no time to finish and we eventually sit down to enjoy our meal. " this is really good Chris" he says "thanks im glad you like it" I respond. just like all the other nights we finish dinner, put away leftovers, and clean up before we retire too the living room with beer and wine.

we sit in silence the only thing playing is friends in the background drinking our drinks. "can you believe were going back to work already. I swear it doesn't feel like 2 weeks" Jim says and breaks the silence. "I know I dont know If im ready for it to be over." I say Jim nods his head in agreement. "Yeah I get it. Back to the real world. But we got this. We will figure it out I promise." He says and intertwined our fingers. I scoot closer to him and curl up into his side. He wraps his arms around me and lays his head atop of mine. I fall asleep to the sound of his heart beat.
